Chapter 22: Halfway Out
"I don't know if I'm alive or dead. Seeing that she couldn't stop the gangsters, the girl's face quickly turned cold. Her body sank, her waist twisted, and countless cold rays shot out from the waist of her skirt in all directions.
Although the gangsters had been on guard for a long time, they hurriedly avoided when they saw the girl move. However, the speed of the cold mang was too fast, and the impact area was wide, and there were still several people who were unfortunately hit by the needle and fell to the ground screaming.
Ning Le rushed to attack in a row, and just forced Zhu Laosi back a few steps, when he suddenly felt something different behind him, and hurriedly fell to the ground sideways. Almost at the same time, a touch of yin wind brushed Ning Le's waist and swept past.
Ning Le naturally understood what was going on, and his heart was suddenly furious, and he turned his head to spray the stinky girl who crossed the river and demolished the bridge with three knives on both sides. But then he heard a muffled snort, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Then he saw the steel needle pierced in Zhu Laosi's left knee.
Ning Le was willing to let go of such a good opportunity. He rolled on the spot, and Hu Guang threw his hand at Zhu Laosi's knee, and the steel needle directly sank into the joint bone.
At this time, Zhu Laosi couldn't bear it, and sat down on the ground with a scream. After losing the game, even if his fist armor is strong, how many points can he use?
"Yes, I didn't expect the two of us to have a tacit understanding. The girl came to Ning Le's side and chuckled.
Ning Le would give her a good look, and without saying a word, he clasped her wrist again: "Don't think that the master doesn't know what you are doing." You're clearly here for the master. β
"No, this girl has confidence in you, okay, I know that these little tricks can't help you. β
The girl pouted, shook her head and sighed: "This needle is a winner, you don't praise me, it's just that, you still doubt the sincerity of this girl." β
"Chi, Chicheng, your face is made of dragon lizard skin, right?" Ning Le was dumbfounded.
"you. That ugly and hard thing full of pleats deserves to be compared to this girl's face?"
The girl couldn't help but kick Ning Le, and then she looked at the few remaining thugs who were still standing around her, and said loudly: "Zhu Laosi, the matter has come to this, do you still want to force your subordinates to come up and send them to death?"
"Hurry up and go back and take out the needle, I'm afraid that it will leave a chronic illness and affect walking." Ning Le also reminded with a kind face, as if he had forgotten who was the initiator.
"......" Zhu Laosi took a few breaths, stared at the girl and Ning Le, and after a long while, he finally gritted his teeth and roared, "Withdraw!"
As if they had been pardoned, the gangsters quickly helped each other up, and set up their boss to leave in disgrace. Unexpectedly, at this moment, a figure rushed in outside the temple, which was the gangster who was sent by Zhu Laosi to investigate the news.
"Four, Fourth Master, there's a team of city guards coming this way!"
"City defense? At this time?" Zhu Laosi was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, "It's really the right time to come! Who is the leader?"
"No, I didn't see it too clearly. The thug was sweating profusely, "But looking at his figure, it seems to be Vice Captain Zhang." β
"What is it like! I can't see this clearly?!" Zhu Laosi slapped the little gangster's head, "Are you not good at tricks or bad at braining?"
The thug looked aggrieved. The dock is dark and blind at night, and it is very good to be able to see that it is the city defense, and what can I do about the rest, I am also desperate!
"That's it. Zhu Laosi waved his hand impatiently, "It's best that you kid is not mistaken, if it is really Deputy Zhang, we will be regarded as a peak turn tonight." β
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Ning Le and the girl behind him, and his eyes were full of sinister smiles.
"It's a nuisance. The girl looked a little irritable, "But it must not fall into the hands of the city guards." β
"What's the matter, the city guards are the same as these gangsters?" Ning Le frowned.
"What are you kidding, the city defense is an army directly under the single family, responsible for the security and city defense of the entire Heavenly Forging Castle, how can you take us people in your eyes?"
The girl pursed her lips: "Zhu Laosi can have a little relationship with a few of these small characters, and that is the limit." β
"Then why did they suddenly become villains with a sense of ambition, and they didn't have the slightest intention of running away?" Ning Le wondered.
"You don't even understand that, they want to kill us. β
The girl sneered: "In this situation, Zhu Laosi and the others have at most violated the curfew on the dock, plus gathering crowds to fight, and they will be fined some money and punished with a few boards." If the person who came was really the deputy captain Zhang Ting who was familiar with them, I am afraid that even the board could be saved. But later, as long as Zhu Laosi accuses the city guards, saying that we are the ones who stole the thirty-six weapons of Qiancao, even if there is no conclusive evidence, how can the city guards easily let us go?"
Ning Le suddenly realized. Indeed, although the stolen goods are no longer on the girl's body, there is no conclusive evidence, but the city defense only needs to invite the young master of the Qian family to identify it, and it will be a big trouble.
With the status of the Qian family on the mainland, and with his status as the four bitter masters of Wunan Qian, if he opened his mouth to ask for a suspect from the defense of Tianforging Fort City, would there be any difficulty? And if the girl fell into the hands of the Qian family, I am afraid that it would never be as easy as a meal......
Wait a minute! Something seems to be wrong.
"You, what you said just now, let's?" Ning Le pointed at the girl in disbelief, and then pointed at himself, finally realizing something.
"Yes, yes, yes. The girl squinted and smiled, "Now, even if you want to deny the relationship with this girl, who will believe it?"
"I-you!" Ning Le was speechless for a moment.
That's right, whether it was the successful theft of the treasure in front of the Golden Scale Pavilion in front of everyone's eyes, or now the two of them are working together to fight the enemy and try to get out, in the eyes of others, aren't they both a pair of male and female thieves who cooperate tacitly!
Ning Le once again recalled Mo Tao's advice.
The human heart is really terrible.
Especially a woman's heart! Ning Le silently added another sentence later.
He secretly glanced around, and found that the gangsters had surrounded them in the middle again under the instruction of Zhu Laosi, and they had to risk their lives to drag them down, waiting for the city defense to arrive, so he couldn't help but rub his temples helplessly: "What is the strength of the city defense?"
"Most of the members of the general guard are ordinary young and strong, but they are all equipped with standard armor suits issued by a single family, and everyone probably has the same combat power as Zhu Laosi just now. The leader may be even stronger, and those who hold positions above the captain are all Yanshi. The girl stated lightly.
"Oh, that's right. Ning Le also nodded lightly, "If the young master ties you up and hands you over to them, will he be able to fight for leniency?"
"Then it depends on whether the fourth prince of Qian, who was slapped in the face by you, is willing to be lenient with you. β
The girl's face was full of indifference: "You can give it a try, by the way, see if your broken pendant can be found?"
"It's not that I don't want to save you!It's the current situation, it's a little troublesome for the master to break through by himself!" Ning Le said wildly.
The girl glanced at him and said suspiciously: "You are also a Yanshi who can repair the mermaid waiter, aren't you so weak?"
"Do you still know that the young master has just finished cultivating such a complicated armor?" Ning Le felt that his mentality was a little explosive.
β...... Exhaustion of spiritual power?" The girl was stunned for a moment, and then her expression became strange, "Ben, this girl thought you were deliberately hiding it, in order to prevent this girl from being ......"
It's not that it doesn't mean it. Ning Le glared at her and said a silent sentence in his heart.
"Well, isn't thatβ" The girl seemed to finally realize the seriousness of the problem, and her face suddenly became a little ugly.
Ning Le saw her expression, and her heart was dark for no reason, and she chuckled: "Let's discuss." After all, you can't escape this time, why don't you do something good before you die, and tell the master where you hid our pendant?"
"Think beautifully. The girl took a sip and changed her words, "But in other words, if you are in a complete state, these shrimp soldiers and crabs outside are not your opponents, right?"
"It's hard to say. But if you can't beat it, you can run away after all. Ning Le said angrily, "It's just that what's the use of talking about this now." β
"It's not like there's no way to ......"
Unexpectedly, the girl's expression became very strange, there was a little more hesitation in her eyes, and there was a little pain in her eyes: "But you have to swear that you must run away with this girl." β
"Huh?"
